“Yeah, I just want to make a few comments. So looking through the ordinance, I think this goes to Councilman Bowie's point. This is written very generally as far as the language. So that, I think, gives us some flexibility in the future. But if you look at... 21.39.080 fee schedule. It refers to an exhibit A. So maybe that's where the flexibility can come. So if that exhibit A, if that ever comes back to council for modification, we'd have that ability. Just want to clarify that.”
